change the blade on a John Deere rotary lawn mower.

Why not? OT is OT, whether it's political or football.

Just like a crime is a crime, whether it's jaywalking or serial rape
and murder.

I express an opinion when I harrass the political trolls. It may be
news to some, but we don't live in a black and white world and
everything, including opinions, doesn't need to be at one extreme end
of the spectrum or the other. The guys posting daily drivel about
benign nonsense are not deliberately trying to disrupt the NG. Some of
them do post about boats, once in a while, as well.
